Abstract/Contents:Profiles penncross creeping bentgrass, stating that it is the "first generation...seed only, produced by random crossing of 3 vegetatively propagated clonal strains." Reports that "from turf quality records over the 5-year period the penncross variety was significantly better in vigor and density, in tolerance to disease and rate of recovery after such attacks." Recommends the use of the penncross variety "only for putting greens or similar intensive turf purposes, but not for general lawns or athletic fields." States that "this seed is produced from fields vegetatively planted with foundation or approved stocks of the strains."
